Features
A function that allows M.2 NVMe SSD installation and removal without any tools. You can easily install or replace the SSD without needing screwdrivers or other tools. Convenient for quickly upgrading storage or swapping SSDs.
The tool-free installation function allows users to quickly install or remove M.2 NVMe SSDs without needing any tools. This simplifies the process of swapping drives or upgrading storage. It is very convenient for users who frequently change their SSDs or want a hassle-free setup experience.
A function that incorporates a heat sink or radiating fins on the enclosure exterior to improve heat dissipation efficiency. The SSD's heat can be effectively released, preventing performance degradation due to high temperatures. Enables stable and sustained high-speed data transfer.
This enclosure does not have an external heat dissipation function. There is no heatsink or radiating fins to improve heat dissipation efficiency. Prolonged use with high-performance NVMe SSDs may lead to thermal throttling. It is advisable to use this enclosure with SSDs that have lower power consumption to prevent overheating.
A function that prevents data from being written to the SSD. Protects your data from accidental deletion or overwriting. Useful for safely viewing or sharing important data without the risk of modification.
This enclosure does not have a write protection function. It is not possible to prevent data from being written to the SSD. This feature is useful for safely viewing or sharing important data without the risk of accidental modification. Users needing this feature should consider other enclosures.
A function supporting the USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP) for faster data transfer speeds. When connected to a UASP-compatible USB port, data transfer speeds are significantly increased compared to conventional USB connections. Reduces transfer times for large files or backups.
Supporting UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) significantly increases data transfer speeds when connected to a UASP-compatible USB port. This reduces transfer times for large files and backups. Ensure your host device supports UASP to take full advantage of this feature. It enhances the overall performance of the enclosure.
A function that displays the enclosure's operating status with an LED indicator. You can easily check whether the SSD is properly connected and transferring data. Allows for quick troubleshooting of connection issues.
The LED indicator provides a quick visual confirmation of the enclosure's operating status. You can easily check whether the SSD is properly connected and transferring data. This helps in troubleshooting connection issues or confirming data transfer activity. The colorful LED lights add an aesthetic appeal to the enclosure.
A function that supports different M.2 NVMe SSD sizes (e.g., 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280). You can use various sized SSDs with a single enclosure. Provides flexibility when upgrading or repurposing existing SSDs.
Supporting multiple M.2 SSD sizes (2230, 2242, 2260, 2280) provides flexibility when upgrading or repurposing existing SSDs. You can use various sized NVMe SSDs with a single enclosure. This makes it a versatile choice for users who have different SSD sizes or plan to upgrade in the future.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
This enclosure offers basic NVMe SSD enclosure functionality at a budget price. The transparent design and LED lights are aesthetic features. Performance is limited by the USB 3.1 interface. Durability is a concern due to the ABS plastic construction. Suitable for light use.
